SE has no obligation to do anything with their servers, they can keep them wherever they want. If you don't like playing a Japanese game on Japanese servers from a Japanese company, then don't play.

To reiterate what I've already said in another post:

SE has the right to do whatever they want with their servers and their data, it's in the contract you agree to when you sign up to play. The fact that, in this case, they're doing it for a good reason simply means you have even less ground to stand on with your complaints. Grow up, you're not going to die just because you don't have a video game, people in Japan can (and will) die if they don't have electricity.
